I can hardly wait to see how you restore those quilts. I retired nearly 7 years ago. I had made or pieced together a couple of quilts before that but never got them quilted. I took up quilting when I retired and have finished 14 quilts and have about 6 pieced together but not quilted. I am working on 3 more quilts as I speak. I sew them on the sewing machine but when I put batting and backing on them I do the hand stitch. I have always loved to sew. I made my and my children clothes when they were growing up. These quilts you just showed are beautiful and being hand pieced together I know took a lot of time. Thank you so much for sharing these. I have my mother's and grandmother's quilts they made.
i VERY MUCH enjoyed the quilt parade---thank you for that!!! i'm also VERY interested in watching as you repair and complete each quilt as i like learning the tricks of the trade as it were.......also, i want to learn about quilt labeling as i've never labeled a quilt.....must be something i'll need to remedy.....sew much to watch in your future videos......good thing i've taken to you sew well....
What a wonderful treasure you found in these quilt tops. The great person who did this must have started stitching when they were five years old. Beautiful!
You have been blessed to have the ability to get those! They are all so beautiful! I will love to see you teaching us on old quilt repairs! ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉So happy for you!
I wanted to say thank you. I saw your video when you were showing how to bind a quilt. I am fairly new to the quilting world. Every time i had to do the binding, i would start to sweat. After your step by step video on binding; wow, i didn't sweat for the first time. You are a good teacher. Thank you.
Boy oh boy! What a wonderful bunch of quilts you showed. It tugs at my heart strings: thinking of this wonderful woman cutting and stitching by hand, hour after hour. What a labour oof love she has left behind for you to find. My imagination is buzzing in my head wondering so many things like where did she get her fabric? Was it recycled clothing? Oh the mysteries of a quilter. I am happy someone who appreciates the time and work put into them has found them. Enjoy
The thing that amazes me about those quilts is ,we have all our patterns and rulers and cutters and they didn't have all we do and still made those beautiful creation s!
I was so thrilled with this video that I watched it two times in a row!! I am so excited for you to own these quilts and I am really looking forward to the upcoming videos of you finishing them. It always seems so unbelievable that a family member didn’t want to keep these. We can only hope that they kept many that were completely finished. Thanks for the advice about not keeping quilts in a cedar chest. I have three or four in mine so I will be removing them. Happy quilting…………….
Amazing find! Reminds me of my Memaw, who hand-stitched hundreds of quilts. I have a couple of polyester quilts. They are tied (versus quilted) and have flannel backing. They are incredibly warm and launder so well. Enjoy!
I’m glad these cool quilts ended up in your hands. I just bought a furnished retirement home in Florida and it came with a few hand made quilts. I’m taking my time to try and figure out how to best remake them. They are in need but I want to be respectful. Thanks for the info and I look forward to more videos.!
I have so many quilt tops my MIL pieced by hand. I may try to get them quilted. I need to send you pictures of the king size postage stamp quilt she made me. 100% hand stitched and quilted. It’s truly a family treasure. She made each grandchild one, too. Amazing work!
What an AMAZING find and I’m so happy that you are the one to get all of those beautiful old quilt tops and restoring them. Your enthusiasm is contagious and I cannot wait to see the transformation of all of these beautiful old quilts.
Pretty quilt tops. I will have to send you pics of 2 quilts I have. One made for my great grandmother birthday and 1 my grandmother made. Still waiting for more on your basic series so I can get started. Thank you!
Sounds great! Please do! If you have any questions Facebook message us or text or call us at the shop. I’d hate for you to wait to get started. You’ll have fun when you do.
Ok…I subscribed based on your promise to take us along for the quilting. Can’t wait to see! My favorite was the one with the mint and yellow sashing, even though it wasn’t a complicated design.
What treasures! What unbelievable finds. So happy to see them in the hands of someone who will appreciate the love and time stitched into each masterpiece.
What a treat it is to see these beautiful old quilts!! I’m so glad you were able to save them. People often don’t understand the love and work that went into to these treasures. This video wins the internet today!!
What an awesome find! I love old quilts also. Have some my grandmother made and my husband's aunt! Love and cherish them! So glad you are finishing them!!
Beautiful quilts. My Grandmother made quilts and used what ever she could get polyester was one of them. she was born in 1899. They used what they could.
Yes they did. If it had been made by a family member or friend I would have loved the polyester one more. I still like it I just like the others better! The feel of polyester is just not my favorite. But I love a good quilt!
My goodness what lovely quilts, it's amazing that they were all made with no special rulers cutters etc. Just fabric scissors home made templates needle thread and lots of time. Glad you found them and will complete them to be used and loved. Will be interesting I received a hand pieced quilt that I will try to restore. Will anxiously be waiting to see how to do so. Thanks.❤
Most enjoyable and quite amazing to me that whoever made these quilts was able to make so many different designs. What a talent that person possessed. I surely hope you are able to find out some more info on their background. Good luck and thanks so much for this wonderful parade of quilts!
WOW! Hi my name is Heather, I’m a small time quilter. I usually make a few quilts per year. I usually make quilt tops after Christmas and before springtime. Otherwise, I’m too busy. But, your quilt top finds are amazing. What I’d give to have found them. Each one takes a tremendous amount of work. I always wonder what the person piecing a quilt is thinking. Their problems, someone else’s problems, what they’re going to prepare for supper. That the kind of thoughts I have. Or if you’re making it for a certain person, how much you love them, and if they will cherish it. New viewer here, but I’m excited to see what you do to them. Oh and hello from Kentucky!
Such a great find. So glad those quilts will be finished and become what they were meant to be. I learned to finish quilts as a younger woman from an Aunt. Her frames were hanging from the ceiling. I always sewed in the corners. Hard work, but it made me love the beauty of all the hours of piecing together of the designs. Can’t wait to see the quilts.
My great aunt had one of those frames that hung from the ceiling. I use to sit for hours and watch her hand quilt. She made beautiful patterns. I was fortunate enough , she let me stitch a small portion. I really miss those days.
That is awesome! I’ve heard stories like that. My husband had a family member in his family that had a frame like that. I never got to see that. I wish I had.
Wow! The tops are beautiful! I'm so glad they ended up with someone like you!! (I share your attitude. I always wonder where and who and what about my old treadles and vintage electric machines and quilts/tops) I'm thankful that your video popped up in my YT suggested videos. New subscriber. 😻
Maybe your favorite hand sewn one. I was lucky enough to get a quilt top made for my mom that her mother pieced in 1959. It had the family’s old clothes and feed sacks. I quilted it for her. Then I did one of my Aunt’s made by her mom. Then an old maid aunt gave me hers and one a lady in Kentucky made for her. The one from KY was hand sewn. So that was a treat for me to be given the tops and then the pleasure of quilting something my Grandma had pieced. Quilting is my passion. I have so much fabric. I’m crazy. But it brings me so much joy. But I don’t have to tell you. You have a shop full. And you know when a collection is sold out they don’t usually bring it back. So you buy it. Sorry I have gone on so long.
You’ve got some treasures! I’ve got one hand quilted one going but we have customer quilts to quilt so don’t get much time to hand stitch them anymore. Plus I love the machines. But yes they’d be pretty hand stitched too.
The polyester one you need to use flannel for batting and anti pill for the backing. I have done this with the ones I have been able to find in ebay. This came be machine quilted and it will be the warmest blanket you will ever have machine quilt 6 inches apart. It will be a treasure for a long time and it will drape beautiful. The colors are from the 50s to the 70s. And I bet it was from a quilting gild. Nice old quilts. I have been lucky to get a box at a auction that no one noticed. I know just how you feel.
Wonderful find! I do a lot of quilts for donation. Those need to be finished. However, i have a pile of pieced tops going of the ones I like too much to give away. They probably wont get finished, because I cant stop my brain from wanting to do a new pattern! My kids are going to have to deal with a pile of unfinished quilts when I'm gone.
Hello sew charming quilt shop great video today on displaying quilt top pieces. Many different designs and styles. I will enjoy watching the video later as you complete each quilt top. Looking forward to the next video. I like this
Wow! Whoever made those quilt tops did so much lovely work. It makes me kind of sad that the original maker might remain anonymous. I really look forward to seeing how you finish them and I do hope you can find out more info about them to give credit to the maker. Thanks so much for sharing!!!
Hi Penny,I can see and understand YOUR SINCERE and GENUINE EXCITEMENT!!😊🎉🎉❤These quilt tops are DEFINITELY DELIGHTFUL!!❤❤CONGRATULATIONS ON SUCH A SPECTACULAR FIND❣️❣️❤❤💝💝🍀🙂🤗☘️Can’t wait to watch you give each and every quilt YOUR TLC!!YOU ALWAYS GIVE ME THE ITCH TO STITCH BY HAND or BY MACHINE❣️❣️🤗😘😊🧵🪡📍
What a find! I have recently purchased two old quilt tops and am anxious to watch you as you restore the quilts you have. I know it will help me tremendously! I agree that the spiderweb quilt is amazing! I have not seen or heard of the spider web ruler.....Can you give me some info on that? Have you done a video to show how to use it??
I just watched your wonderful video on the quilts.oh I am so ex cited about it. Please tell me you don't store your quilts in plastic long term. I am Retired from my tailoring shop of 37 years. I have repaired quilts . I also had a dry cleaning service. I had ladies bring good clothes in that they stored in plastic long term with what we called environmental stains and yellowing. Would not come out. I didn't make quilts I repaired and monogrammed names on them. I have made one t shirt quilt for a client. I have to say I am not a fan of polyester either. The one you have is so lovely. I like all the colors. The last quilt you have spiderweb oh my!! all the colors amazing When you show it again I would love more close up shots of it and whatever Time you have. Thank you for sharing your find. What a blessing Maybe you can find family of this lady that has some info and more quilts that they reviewed as gifts. Lynda
I believe we have figured out who made the quilts. Just verifying. Also, the plastic bags are for during the time they are waiting to be quilted. We’ve done that for years. They don’t stay in them long. 😁
What a beautiful treasure. I’m so happy you found them. I like to hear when old quilts are found by another quilter or collector to be treasured and given the recognition they deserve. I’m curious…what were they selling them for?
@@sewcharmingquiltshop What part of the country do you live in ?? I'm in Florida and never find a quilt top stash. I'm like you. I just like to enjoy the person's work. I love a good string quilt. I'm a scrappy fan but love anything star. I like that you are not overly concerned about everything being perfect. Thanks for all your tips. ✌🏻♥️
@@diannenaworensky6698 you sound just like me. I love scrappy and I love stars. I love old quilts. And no, I’m not overly worried about anything being perfect. If it’s close, I’m fine with it. It’s never going to be “perfect”. My motor is “done is better than perfect”. Also, we are in Clanton, Alabama. Center of the state
I’m so glad you are one of the people who realize the work and beauty of old quilts.

Beautiful quilts all of them are my favorites.
You hit the jackpot! I love old quilts and old quilt tops!😊
Me too!!!
A perfect example of why we should label our quilts. How awesome would it have been to find labels on those quilts.
Yes!!!

Beautiful quilt tops. I do really like the polyester. And it wears well.
I like it. It’s beautiful it’s just not as fun to quilt. I like the feel of the cotton ones better.
What a treat it is to see these beautiful old quilts!! I’m so glad you were able to save them. People often don’t understand the love and work that went into to these treasures. This video wins the internet today!!

Hello and welcome! You and I must think alike! I always think like that when I’m quilting old quilt tops. Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed it.
Such a great find. So glad those quilts will be finished and become what they were meant to be. I learned to finish quilts as a younger woman from an Aunt. Her frames were hanging from the ceiling. I always sewed in the corners. Hard work, but it made me love the beauty of all the hours of piecing together of the designs. Can’t wait to see the quilts.
I wish I could have seen quilting done that way. I’ve heard lots of stories though. I bet it was neat!
They are all beautiful and the colors are amazing I love old scrappy colorful quilts….🦋🦋🦋
They are my favorite! I love scrappy ones!
That log cabin is a gorgeous treasure! They are all lovely quilts and I am glad they didn’t end up in a landfill!
Great find! I'm looking forward to seeing all these quilts completed. Thanks for giving us a chance to see this process!
I can’t wait to see what you do with these quilt tops. They are beautiful!
Thank you so much! I’m going to have fun finishing them.
You did make a haul …So many beautiful tops..Wowzier
My great aunt had one of those frames that hung from the ceiling. I use to sit for hours and watch her hand quilt. She made beautiful patterns. I was fortunate enough , she let me stitch a small portion. I really miss those days.
That is awesome! I’ve heard stories like that. My husband had a family member in his family that had a frame like that. I never got to see that. I wish I had.
What an amazing find, all of these quilts are so very special!!!
You are going to be busy 😊. Pretty quilts
I love all of the log cabin variations. What a blessed find.
What a wonderful find!!! Good for you. 🐦🙏❤
Wow! The tops are beautiful! I'm so glad they ended up with someone like you!! (I share your attitude. I always wonder where and who and what about my old treadles and vintage electric machines and quilts/tops)
I'm thankful that your video popped up in my YT suggested videos. New subscriber. 😻
Thank you so much! And yes, I do the same with machines. I wonder who sewed on them and what they saw and went through. 😊
Congratulations! We can hear the excitement in your voice😊
Wow, sure wish I had the luck to come across a find like this. Beautiful!!!
Beautiful. I hope you hand quilt them. What a wonderful find.
I won’t live long enough for that! 😂
Maybe your favorite hand sewn one.
I was lucky enough to get a quilt top made for my mom that her mother pieced in 1959. It had the family’s old clothes and feed sacks. I quilted it for her. Then I did one of my Aunt’s made by her mom. Then an old maid aunt gave me hers and one a lady in Kentucky made for her. The one from KY was hand sewn.
So that was a treat for me to be given the tops and then the pleasure of quilting something my Grandma had pieced.
Quilting is my passion. I have so much fabric. I’m crazy. But it brings me so much joy.
But I don’t have to tell you. You have a shop full. And you know when a collection is sold out they don’t usually bring it back. So you buy it.
Sorry I have gone on so long.
You’ve got some treasures! I’ve got one hand quilted one going but we have customer quilts to quilt so don’t get much time to hand stitch them anymore. Plus I love the machines. But yes they’d be pretty hand stitched too.
The polyester one you need to use flannel for batting and anti pill for the backing. I have done this with the ones I have been able to find in ebay. This came be machine quilted and it will be the warmest blanket you will ever have machine quilt 6 inches apart. It will be a treasure for a long time and it will drape beautiful. The colors are from the 50s to the 70s. And I bet it was from a quilting gild. Nice old quilts. I have been lucky to get a box at a auction that no one noticed. I know just how you feel.
What an awesome find! I am looking forward to future videos featuring how you finish these quilt tops. You will definitely stay busy. 😊
For a long time! 😂
You have found buried treasures. I am so thankful to find you and watch this incredible video. I look forward to the restorations and completions. WOW
Awesome that you rescued these beauties! I feel like I have found a treasure when I find just one.
I so happy for you. You are the perfect person to restore the honor and the beautiful work that she did. I can’t wait to see them restored.
Thank you so much!
Great trunk show. What a find.
Those are amazing!! How great for your "Find" and such fun for you to finish now!!
Yes!!!!
A lot of love went into making all of these old memories quilts.
Definitely!
Very nice.
Great find. As you finish these you can makeup a story for each one…the lady had friends that met each week to talk and eat pie and stitch. Have fun.
Wonderful find! I do a lot of quilts for donation. Those need to be finished. However, i have a pile of pieced tops going of the ones I like too much to give away. They probably wont get finished, because I cant stop my brain from wanting to do a new pattern! My kids are going to have to deal with a pile of unfinished quilts when I'm gone.
The kids will love them I’m sure. Try to finish them. You sound like me. I’m always starting a new one.
I would have to have that stars out where I could see it. 30 years ago an old quilt or top would escape me. I always found loving. Homes for them.
Oh that one will be! A couple will. The ones that are not as strong will be put in the curio cabinet
The last one will be so warm for your daughter! I have one that is not even pretty, but it’s the one I put on when it’s cold outside.
I would have a heart attack. Those are all so pretty.
I can't believe there was more quilts.
You sre so lucky.
I think so too. I never find good finds like this. I still smile just looking at them.
Oh Thank you for showing us the Beautiful quilts!!! What a find! And how great for them that they got to come home with you!!! 😊👍👍
I feel the same way!! 😁😁😁
Beautiful!! What a find
Can't wait to watch you quilt them!

Beautiful iadeas quilt ❤
I think you like stars! LOL I love all of them. What a great treasure.
Yes I do! Was it that obvious? 😂🤣
Back to torn area with iron on interfacing, pulling the pieces together as neatly as possible. Then stitch over it.
That is amazing. It will be beautiful to see them when they are done.
I can’t wait to get started on them. Trying to finish something else first but it will be soon that I get started!

What a find! I have recently purchased two old quilt tops and am anxious to watch you as you restore the quilts you have. I know it will help me tremendously! I agree that the spiderweb quilt is amazing! I have not seen or heard of the spider web ruler.....Can you give me some info on that? Have you done a video to show how to use it??
I’ve not done a video on it yet but this is the ruler. www.sewcharmingquiltshop.com/shop/c/p/Creative-Grids-Spider-Web-Quilt-Ruler-x70171779.htm
I love polyester quilts because they do not wear out like the cotton ones do.
Check out the real estate tax records through the county for maybe the owner of the quilts. Love this video!
We think we found out who made them. Just verifying.
All are beautiful!
I just watched your wonderful video on the quilts.oh I am so ex cited about it.
Please tell me you don't store your quilts in plastic long term.
I am Retired from my tailoring shop of 37 years. I have repaired quilts . I also had a dry cleaning service.
I had ladies bring good clothes in that they stored in plastic long term with what we called environmental stains and yellowing. Would not come out.
I didn't make quilts I repaired and monogrammed names on them.
I have made one t shirt quilt for a client.
I have to say I am not a fan of polyester either. The one you have is so lovely. I like all the colors.
The last quilt you have spiderweb oh my!! all the colors amazing
When you show it again I would love more close up shots of it and whatever Time you have.
Thank you for sharing your find. What a blessing
Maybe you can find family of this lady that has some info and more quilts that they reviewed as gifts.
Lynda
I believe we have figured out who made the quilts. Just verifying. Also, the plastic bags are for during the time they are waiting to be quilted. We’ve done that for years. They don’t stay in them long. 😁
I subscribed just to see these quilts finished can’t wait❤
Thank you!
What a beautiful treasure. I’m so happy you found them. I like to hear when old quilts are found by another quilter or collector to be treasured and given the recognition they deserve. I’m curious…what were they selling them for?
The owner passed away. She was a huge quilter, seamstress, and crafter in general.
Loved the Star quilt !!
Thanks!!
@@sewcharmingquiltshop What part of the country do you live in ?? I'm in Florida and never find a quilt top stash. I'm like you. I just like to enjoy the person's work. I love a good string quilt. I'm a scrappy fan but love anything star. I like that you are not overly concerned about everything being perfect. Thanks for all your tips. ✌🏻♥️
@@diannenaworensky6698 you sound just like me. I love scrappy and I love stars. I love old quilts. And no, I’m not overly worried about anything being perfect. If it’s close, I’m fine with it. It’s never going to be “perfect”. My motor is “done is better than perfect”. Also, we are in Clanton, Alabama. Center of the state

Maybe you can put shape flex on the back of the torn fabric. I've repaired a couple like that to keep the original fabric.
We’ve got some of that at the shop. Might try that.
